It's 15%, and can also be applied to sale items.

Also, if your local store is still having extra 30% off sale items, it CAN also be stacked with that.

However, you CAN use your student discount with sales Items again. They just changed that policy. You lucked out my friend.

Actually he is right. You CAN stack your student discount with extra 30% off sale. I am 100% sure on this. I think at one point, 15% student/teacher discount could not be used on sale. Then it changed so you COULD use student/teacher discount on sale, but not stack it with extra 30% sale items. Then it was changed, I think within the last 7 days, you CAN stack 15% student/teacher discount on top of the 30% extra on sale. Again, they may change it after the current in store 30% extra off sale ends, but as of right now, stack away!

Nice, I'll have to try to take advantage of that. There aren't any mens stores near me, so I pretty much entirely shop online. How strict are they in proving you're a student? I've graduated from college but I still have my ID.

If you advertised you graduated to the SA ringing you up, you might have a problem. But if you show them the college ID, and haven't aged 20 years since then, I don't think you'll have a problem!

Any size XL guys want some sun-washed oxfords. I've lost weight, and no longer wear a xl, and have a Blue, yellow, light green and pink, all retail for $68. They been washed and worn, but I take care of stuff and are in good condition etc. Looking for 13 a piece plus 5 to ship. If you buy all 4, 10 a piece and still only 5 to ship.

Don't really want to create a sale thread as I'm pretty much giving these away, and not gonna take pics etc for this cheap, just hoping to get a few bucks back from my money so I can sink it into more j crew stuff LOL.

PM if interested. BTW, pink hasn't been avail for a while now, and has the perfect tone to it, not to bright, but not faded to white, just very light pink. This is only avail within U.S., or if international you have to buy all 4 shirts and pay the difference in shipping costs, between the 5 I will cover and actual cost to ship it to you.

I just called four stores and the 1800 J. Crew line twice and every single time they told me that the student discount cannot be combined with additional sales promotions they are having. Essentially it's either or.

yeah I think whoever stacked them got lucky

Can anyone get me a good deal on the sweatpants they have in store? I think they're $58 and "vintage fleece"

^ http://www.jcrew.com/mens_category/p...9327/29327.jsp those are much better, however I swear they were only $58 in store. I'm going to try and get the style number tomorrow

shorts are great for summer but this one is a huge disaster. a plain white shirt and men's sandals would have been better.
